Jonathan F 02/05/2022 Extremely short-paced, felt like most of the movie was empty without a real driving story. I would have hoped for more action. See more Katie D 03/15/2021 An amazing film! very well-done, thought-provoking, entertaining and unpredictable. my only complaint is about the loud horn blasts that accompany so many science fiction movie scenes - unnecessary, unrealistic and distracting! other than that it was awesome! See more Travis M @TMorg007 Jul 10 I loved it! Solid acting and a fantastic unveiling of the "visitors". This is a great looking modern film in the style of classic sci-fi movies where science is the actual focus to solve a mystery while reminding us the unique value of humanity. Watch it! See more Gaald G @RT76099229 Jul 9 Thoughtful and well told. One of my favourite Sci-Fi movies ever! See more Par H @Parhwy Jul 4 Arrival (2016) is a 116-minute-long US sci-fi I saw on Prime in July 2023. For me, this is a perfect contact movie (better than Contact even). It is not a perfect movie however it is close, so close to being so. I genuinely cannot think of a flaw that is significant enough to make it less than a 9/10. The production design, the story, the plot, editing, casting, acting, CGI… and so on, all 9/10. I should declare at this late point that I have rewatched this film 10s of times. Rewatch? Yes! Recommend? Yes! 9/10. See more Paolo F @XKP-Producer Jun 30 Arrival proves that sci-fi doesn't need explosions, laser battles or giant space wars to be unforgettable. It's quiet, intelligent and surprisingly emotional. The story moves at its own pace, asking you to pay attention instead of throwing action at your face every five minutes. And somehow, it works. By the end, you're simply glad you watched it. Amy Adams delivers a fantastic performance, carrying a film that is more about people and communication than aliens. If you're looking for adrenaline, this isn't your movie. But if you enjoy well-acted dramas wrapped in a thoughtful sci-fi story, Arrival is absolutely worth your time. Smart, elegant and refreshingly different. See more Read all reviews
